From Skaven to God-King of War
Chapter 221, The contract between the temple guard and the grassland lord
Following the liquidation of those who were fleeing in embarrassment on the grassland, the temple guards intervened in the subsequent construction and planning of the rat city on this vast grassland with an uncharacteristically strong attitude.
Such a plan was given.
A fortress city and several regional cities fell in an area to form an urban cluster.
Such a plan caused dissatisfaction and turmoil. After all, in the plan of the temple guards, only that fortress city could build the temple. Naturally, this fortress city would become the absolute center of this area.
This is not a problem, but the problem is that the city will not be assigned a Skaven Lord, but will be directly ruled by the temple guards.
If this plan is pushed forward, it will be equivalent to the temple guards becoming the de facto controllers of this vast grassland.
After the radical faction among the senior Skaven Priests was destroyed, the Senior Skaven Priests gradually lost control of the faith in the Skaven Kingdom.
The temple guards took over their positions. This was a good move. After all, compared to the rat priests who fought fiercely and consumed each other, the temple guards who had always been silent and were not good at raising the name of the gods took over this position. It was very important to the rat kingdom. Any side other than the Skaven Priests is a good thing.
After all, the position of the temple guards is different from that of the senior rat priests. Even though they are powerful and hold such authority, they are still a group of guards and will not exceed their limits.
The senior rat-man priests don't mind crushing each other in the name of the gods. They are priests and messengers of the gods. Moreover, the senior rat-man priests still have different opinions among themselves. They all think that they are The most pious and unique.
These guys are the most noisy.
The temple guards took over the voice of the senior rat priests, or in other words, the temple guards temporarily took away the voice of the rat priests. No one in the rat kingdom objected, and the only ones who wanted to oppose The senior rat priest took over cities one after another and became a rat lord. He also fought fiercely among himself and was powerless.
But it is only a temporary profit sharing. In the entire Ratman Kingdom, only the Ratman priests can be regarded as the real messengers of the gods. This part of the right to speak cannot be completely taken away. However, after being obtained by the temple guards, the Ratman It's not easy for the human priest to get it back.
The temple guards master one of the most fundamental things, power.
Based on the current situation of the rat priests, unless a guy who can suppress all the objections among the rat priests emerges, it will be difficult to successfully get back this part of the voice.
The most important thing is that such guys don't exist. White Rats are like them. Although these senior rat priests are all very resentful towards White Rats, in fact, as long as White Rats wave their hands and get close to these guys, they will immediately He would put down everything in his hands and rush back to the barren mountains to show his loyalty.
It's a pity that the white mouse has no such idea.
The temple guards were still too eager and took over the only fortress city where the temple could be built, which triggered a decisive counterattack by the rat lords.
The destruction of the radicals originally brought them a sense of sadness. You took away part of the right to interpret your beliefs, but you are still so eager to hold on to the lifeblood of these guys who turned into rat lords and took over the city?
Are they really being treated as soft persimmons?
The radical move of the temple guards triggered a fierce confrontation. A large group of rat mercenaries were mobilized amidst the throwing of batches of blood mushrooms. The rat lord, or in other words, the senior rat lord as the rat lord, Human priests, they are not peaceful guys.
In the lush forest, under the eyes of the white rats, they still fought a civil war with the rats with real swords and guns, not to mention that they were now being forced by the temple guards.
Not long after, an extremely large mixed mercenary force was assembled, and the temple guards became a little more anxious.
This mixed mercenary force is certainly not a big problem. The temple guards who have gathered together are still stationed in the fortress behind the scarlet pit and have not completely dispersed. All it takes to defeat this mixed mercenary force is just It's just one charge or two.
Although it is easy to defeat this mixed mercenary, it cannot change the tense situation at this time. These senior rat priests are far from being buried. At this point, the more you oppress them, The more intense their counterattack becomes, and how much it costs to recruit this mixed mercenary force.
If they are forced into a hurry, it will not be difficult to raise ten more mercenary troops, or they can simply break through the contract and start formal preparations for the regular army. There are indeed no outstanding war commanders among the senior rat priests. , but this does not mean that the group of rat priests does not have qualified war power.
The group of excluded war priests, being awakened by them, was just a matter of a thought. According to the mobilization ability and resources of this group of guys, it is not difficult at all to forcefully raise a regular rat army.
And this is not even the worst situation. The retirement of the senior rat priests lies in their internal divisions, the spreading battles and grudges, but under the huge threat posed by the temple guards, these guys have a faint signs of reunification.
As a last resort, the leader of the temple guards entered the rat cities alone to talk to the rat lords.
This was a huge show of weakness and gave the rat lords enough face. In exchange for calming the situation, it also obtained a solution in which both sides took a step back.
The fortress city will still be managed by the temple guards, but apart from things related to faith, there will be nothing more, whether it is a breeding room, a planting room, or a series of other basic measures, these will not be in the fortress city. Appearing in the city, this place will become a city of pure faith.
Such concessions greatly weakened the autonomy of the fortress city. After all, without these measures, the fortress city could only rely on other normal cities belonging to the same area to support and maintain the fortress city.
The fortress city lost its autonomy, but retained its absolute central position. Regional cities were forcibly tied to the fortress city, but they could vaguely check and balance the fortress city.
In this way, both parties are partially castrated. Through mutual checks, balances and complementarities, a solution is reached that is acceptable to both parties.
Prairie City.
The temple guards and the rat lords once again engraved the pattern on the stone slab, officially signing the contract.
The Skaven Lords made peace with the temple guards.
